The forecaster said that up to 10cm of snow could fall but the worst of the conditions are expected in south Wales.

The yellow warning said: "Any single period of snow is not expected to last more than six to nine hours but some snow accumulations are likely with 1-3 cm likely in places within the warning area and the potential for 5-10 cm, perhaps particularly over Wales and southwest England. Snow amounts will vary markedly across England and Wales with many places seeing very little accumulating snow, more so in East Anglia and the Midlands. Even where snow does not fall icy stretches are still to be expected."
